Today's Legion news is a spotlight on 알드라치 전투검, the Vengeance Demon Hunter Artifact Weapon. We also have a few fun updates on Dalaran and Blizzard's February 2016 Overview. Edit: we've added images and videos of the Artifact Fishing Pole!

Artifact Fishing Pole

There will be an Artifact Fishing Pole in Legion and this recent alpha build added textures to the previously-datamined model! There are two variations, one of bone, and another with colorful fins.

Vengeance Demon Hunter Artifact Acquisition

Below is the questline for Vengeance Demon Hunters to acquire 알드라치 전투검.

The related quest and scenario are 복수는 우리 것이다 and 부서진 해변--more details under the spoiler button.

We have long relied on Lord Illidan to vanquish the Legion's strongest warriors - many have expressed concern over our efforts without him. Thankfully, their concerns may not matter much longer. We know of two pairs of blades rumored to be more powerful than even Lord Illidan's that are not yet out of reach. If we act quickly we should be able to hunt down one without forsaking our watch over the Legion's movements.

This is the message when you select the Vengeance weapon:

The mighty Aldrachi were one of the few to stand against the Burning Legion. It took Sargeras to fell their greatest champion, seizing his warblades in the process. Now the traitorous Illidari Carla, servant of Kil'jaeden, wields the infamous warblades. The more souls she claims, the more powerful she becomes...

You will have to travel to the Broken Shore and find Carla, but first you must gather more information on her position. You need to find a crystallized soul for the communicator, and Khadgar knows where it is. This takes place in the following quest series: 동력원을 부탁해, 물어라, 그러면 얻을 것이다, 제이스에게 돌아가기, 통신 시작.

물어라, 그러면 얻을 것이다 is an amusing quest as it pokes fun of Khadgar collecting annoying items from past expansions:

Hold on for just a moment. I'm afraid I'm a bit of a pack rat.Now let's see...apexis crystals? no, no, those won't do at all.I must have put it over here.Arcane powder...soul shards...that's definitely not it...

Stage 2 – Their Blood Will FlowCut through the demon hordes and destroy their portals.Carla: I thought I sensed a paltry whelp wandering where it shouldn't. I'll reduce this enitre canyon to rubble if I have to.

Stage 3 – A River of SoulsTwo of Caria's lieutenants are performing a dark ritual. They must be stopped.Allari: Do you see those corpses? Their souls have been torn right out of their bodies.

Stage 4 – In the Darkness of the PitGorgonnash has risen to stop your assault.

Stage 6 – Vengeance for the IllidariCaria Felsoul's time has come.Carla: The Legion is only the beginning. My blades call upon power from beyond!For every soul I claim, my power grows. I will rule this world...ALL worlds!Varedis has shown me the true path. The Legion can make us strong once more!Yes, I can feel your will weakening.i WILL claim your soul, even if I have to tear it from your lifeless body.

Final Stage – Right by AscensionClaim the Aldrachi Warblades as your own.

Behold the Tomb of Sargeras - the Legion's primary gateway into Azeroth.The situation is more dire than we thought. The demons have already spread across much of the surrounding isles.We must act soon, or I fear the situation will become...unsalvageable.

Aldrachi Warblades Weapon Models

All weapon styles can be added to the Legion Dressing Room and can be browsed on the "Appearances" tab in the Artifact Calculator. It is unknown what old tier, if any, can be equipped by Demon Hunters in Legion - here are some lookalike tier sets any class can equip.

There is also a sixth datamined style which has slightly different models for the main hand and off hand.

Dalaran Updates

KageSatsuki discovered a special addition to the Dalaran First Aid Building. 빅토르 에본폴 is a Druid that can't shapeshift out of 바다표범 변신:

What're you lookin' at? Ain't ye ever seen a sea lion before?Yes, I'm a druid and...well...I'm kind of stuck like this for a while.I was patrolling the sea around the Broken Shore when an infernal crashed down into the water right on top of me! The blast was so strong it instantly knocked me unconscious.When I woke I was here in the care of the nurses. They say after a few days I should have the strength to shift back so in the meantime I'm stuck in this contraption to keep me from drying out.Do me a favor and don't mention this to any of the other druids, they'll never let me live it down!

JiangWing has discovered a new toy for sale by 제페토 조이버즈, the 달라란 원반. This item can be thrown to players, and it automatically returns to you. Unlike most items you can throw to players, this one you don't have to worry about getting back since it is a toy - it has unlimited charges.

Jiang also found a joking reference to how Dalaran was moved from Northrend to the Broken Isles. 린지 블랙볼트 says:

Oh, you know, nothing much. Just helped move an entire city from the frozen north to a haunted keep, the on to a chain of demon-infested islands! All in a day's work, I suppose.

So vengeance DHs share the same artifact area as ret paladins. ... Ugh. At least the quests aren't the same despite the area being the same unlike the unholy DK, balance druid, and affliction warlock and then shadow priests, holy paladins, and arms warriors. Begs the question what the third spec is that shares the vengeance DH/ret paladin area since Blizzard's going in 3s it seems. With 36 specs, that means there may only really be 12 areas and roughly 12 quest chains. Disappointing that they're not all unique considering artifacts are a big feature of the expansion.

Also seems to suggest the vengeance DH gets to the area after the ret paladin considering all of the dead paladins lying around and no sign of Tirion. Subtle suggestion of a time line with that.

Why did you guys stop showing the artifacts WITH a character that has them equipped ? It was so nice and now it's difficult to see the size and proportions of the item and its different caracteristics. We're forced to look at the pictures to get a better idea of what it looks like but pictures are not enough, videos are, and you used to use videos.

No worries, setting up high-quality model videos is pretty new for us and it slipped our minds to add with everything going on. We liked how we did it for Enhancement Shaman, where we paired the weapon with Legion tier and then looked at individual weapons. I kind of felt sorry for the naked guy in the Paladin preview videos.

I felt like I need to mention that Linzy Blackbolt mentioned moving from frozen north to haunted keep before coming to Broken Isles. Is this the datamined Dalaran in Deadwind Pass? Could it be the pre-Legion patch world event?

And that fishing artifact.. I feel bad for the poor deepsea murloc fella... Hmm... maybe hunter T11 lookalike transmog might have some use after all...

I love that the artifact fishing pole is basically an impaled murloc skeleton. If it magically made the murloc sound whenever i cast, I would be giddy.

Not wild about the fishbones. Hoping we'll be able to transmog fishing poles.
